just got a android tablet for my daughters birthday yesterday and it connects to the internet on wifi. i downloaded barnicle and turned it on but when her wifi is on it did not find my phone, did i do something wrong or should i try another app? i wan her to be abel to tether to mine so she can use it in the car. thanks
 
it wont work if your tablet is not mac but there is a file that you download on your phone from pdanet and send to your tablet it has 32-bit 64-bit and mac.

I'm slightly confused... Are you saying that WiFi Tether for Root Users only works for Macs??? Because that is nonsense, I regularly use it for not only a Mac (never even tried that), but a WindowsXP PC, an Windows7 Laptop, a Linux Mint Laptop, a Galaxy Tab, and a Droid X... :rolleyes:

And yes, I'm familiar with PDANet also. This one just works easier/better.

He means MAC as in Media Access Control address not a MAC computer.
